Stuart Stevens: Fighting American Fascism

Stuart Stevens dedicated his life to getting Republicans elected. He worked for dozens of candidates, including both Bush and Romney during their presidential campaigns, and was extremely successful. Now however, Stuart regrets the part he played in the rise of Trumpism. In 2020, he wrote It Was All a Lie, about his time in the Republican party, and how Trumpism is “the natural outcome of five decades of hypocrisy and self-delusion.” His new book, The Conspiracy to End America, explains how the GOP is “dragging the country towards autocracy.”

In this interview, Stuart compares the U.S. to 1930s Germany, and the modern Republican party to those complicit in Hitler’s rise to power.
